Winner
Designer: Kate Barraclough, Kate Frances Design
Title: The New Zealand Art Activity Book (new edition)
Publisher: Te Papa Press
Format: 270 x 200mm, 160pp, paperback, full colour with flaps.
Typography: Archer T1 used for artwork titles and Sofia Pro for body text.
Judges’ Comments The muted colour palette, shying from obvious vibrant primary colour, somehow works. Layouts are brought to life by some strong art direction on photography, which the designer uses to good effect. Typography balances fun for kids to engage with and easy step by step learning outcomes. Really user friendly, practical and engaging.
